Good Friday afternoon! After a cold start to the day, conditions turned out rather nice this afternoon, with a good dose of sunshine. Expect a freeze and frost overnight tonight, with lows near 30 on average.

A ridge builds into the area over the weekend, with highs in the lower 60s on Saturday and upper 60s on Sunday. Expect upper 30s Saturday night, as the warming trend begins. I wouldn’t be surprised if some spots south of I-20 reach 70 on Sunday.

Clouds increase on Monday, and a passing shower or two will become possible. I don’t expect a major rain chance on Monday, but have the umbrella handy. Late Tuesday and Tuesday night, a storm system will bring a good chance of rain and storms to the state. The risk of severe weather appears low at this time, however, it is a system we’ll watch carefully.

Cooler air will move in on Wednesday.
